A doctor referred me to Lucy with "would you open to seeing a nutritionist?" That was an…read moreunderstatement, like "hey, my buddy Picasso is good with a pen if you were looking for a nice doodle." Lucy is way beyond expectations. This is not just about solving a problem or a health issue and moving on. I was looking for someone to help me figure out how to think about my body, eating, and, for lack of a better phrase, get my body and mind in peak operating mode. I came looking for a mentor about nutrition. Lucy has opened my eyes to different views on nutrition, holistic medicine and health, philosophy, lifestyle, ... I could go on and on. She also has a vast network of colleagues who have been helpful to me in other ways. My life has been permanently changed for the better. Yes, I've lost 20 pounds and have a much richer understanding of the effects of different foods on my body, but I also have the peace of mind and mental clarity I was seeking. If you're looking for someone to help you start an exploration of what works for you -- body, mind, and soul, -- I would recommend Lucy and her loving spirit a million times over.

I worked with Lucy for six months and she helped me completely transform my life! I was juggling…read moremultiple stressful situations and life, and I needed to start from scratch to prioritize wellness and find my happiness again. Lucy's like a wise, knowledgable friend that you trust and respect. She gets to the root of your problems and empowers you to make changes in your life, no matter how difficult they may be. She thinks outside of the box to help you overcome whatever your struggles may be. I've never worked with someone so dedicated to me before.

New York City Nutrition (formerly Lorraine Kearney nutrition) is incredible. Seeing Lorraine has…read moreCHANGED MY LIFE. I started seeing Lorraine last year because I wanted to learn how to eat a properly portioned/nutritious meal. I am an extremely picky eater and don't really care for meat so for me, most meals usually meant 85% carbs. Through my time with Lorraine over the past few months, I have learned a great deal about what makes up a well-balanced meal and in return, I have lost close to 15 pounds....and I'm just getting started! Lorraine is INCREDIBLY smart, non-judgemental, empathetic, realistic, relatable and I truly feel like she has become a friend over the past few months. She is so easy to talk to and encouraging. She understands people live life and sometimes that means eating pizza or drinking...her approach is a realistic one in that she is helping me learn what makes my body feel good, and is that pizza really worth it? If it is, have one slice instead of two. Lorraine minored in psychology so she really understands how what's going on in our head can impact our eating decisions (here's where the non-judgemental piece comes in). The knowledge she has shared with me has had a profound impact on my life and I truly believe seeing Lorraine has changed the trajectory of my life for the better. I am so grateful for everything Lorraine has done for me and continues to do for me on a weekly basis. I highly recommend her if you're struggling with any health conditions, are looking to lose weight or just want to learn more about food and how you should be eating to make your body feel its best. Thank you, Lorraine!!!!!

I have been on a health journey for the past few years, but decided to see Lorraine as my…read morenutritionist because I was getting tired of the same routine and falling into extreme eating habits. I have been with Lorraine for almost a month now and can safely say that she has completely changed my life and point of view on food. She provides such a comfortable and safe environment to talk about not just food, but my cognitive and mental outlook on my life. Upon my consultation, she made sure to note all aspects of my health and past eating habits, and created a delicious customized meal plan based on my preferences, as I am primarily plant based. These plans also integrate meal prep into them, which has reduced my snacking tendencies, as I can just grab my prepped meals from the fridge. I have fallen in love with cooking at home again and get excited about each meal as they are all so diverse and completely satiate me. It's crazy how quickly my taste preferences have changed and crave her recipes. The 3-month plan I opted for includes weekly check-ins, where Lorraine doesn't mention calories or weight every time, but more of how I am feeling mentally based on the foods I am eating. She is also sure to educate me on certain foods to avoid or gravitate towards which can positively affect my lifestyle. I look forward to seeing her each week because she celebrates every small victory with me. I could not recommend anyone else- thank you Lorraine!!!

If you're on the fence about working with a personal trainer....just do it. And do it with Jon!…read more I started working with Jon in April of 2025. I am a mom of two young-ish children, and I hadn't worked out since I giving birth to my younger child in September of 2021. My long-term goals were to increase my strength and decrease my body fat while maintaining the little muscle I had...and I was very wary of my ability to do this alone. I was also several months away from turning 40, and my short-term goal was to feel (and look!) good before that happened. I knew Jon was the trainer for me as soon as I met him. I have a very specific sense of humor, and Jon appreciates it. This was very important to me, as it was the only thing that was going to get me over my workout anxiety. I truly felt like I was working out with a good friend, but one who would hold me accountable and push me to be better. Jon really knows what he's doing. He has been able to address issues that I've had for years, and he's super thoughtful about programming my workouts. He knows when to push me and when to switch things up. I always feel very safe with Jon, and I completely trust him when it comes to my progression/heavy weight training. My workouts fly by despite being challenging. I truly believe it's because Jon in FUN and we actually have a great time. Over the last 9 months of working out twice a week, I've lost 10 lbs and feel significantly stronger. I would highly recommend Jon to anyone who wants to achieve their fitness goals.

I wholeheartedly recommend Jon as a personal trainer…read more Jon is an expert in his field and EXTREMELY knowledgeable. He is also kind and motivational. Each session he checked in to see how I was feeling. He provided nutritional guidance and tailored workouts to help me reach my goals. I appreciate his attention, ability to assess what my body needs and make the appropriate adjustments during a workout. He is very patient but also pushed me to lift heavier when I thought I couldn't. To see myself get stronger and slimmer felt great. Over the 7 months that I trained with Jon, I lost 34lbs. and dropped 4 dress sizes. The only reason I am no longer training with Jon is because I had to relocate. if you're considering hiring a trainer who will listen, motivate, and help you reach your fitness goals, Jon is your guy. Call him up, you won't regret it! Thank you Jon! You are the best trainer I've ever had. Your expertise, guidance, and care transformed my health!

I have worked with Moss Wellness twice now for two different issues…read more One was Leaky Gut - which they COMPLETELY cured me!!! Such a miracle because I felt like my life was over with the amount of pain I was in.. The other, and most recent was my struggle with a reoccurring itchy skin issue, which I've had for 20 years - tinea versicolor. In the past, I had only been prescribed anti-fungal pills that destroyed my stomach and ointments that did not work by dermatologists. Those doctors could never get to the root cause, they were clueless. I knew instinctively that my issue was caused by an internal imbalance and could be cured. I'm so happy that I found MW because they guided me in healing my body from the inside out with the ease of at-home testing to check for imbalances and deficiencies. From there, my incredible coach, Kasia, (Ph.D., Holistic Nutrition Coach) created a food cleanse and supplement protocol based on my tests to cleanse, heal and support my body, and it works. Thanks to Moss Wellness + Kasia, I am now armed with the knowledge to support myself on my own in healing if I feel my skin issue come creeping back. I firmly believe that we can heal ourselves with the right support, Moss Wellness is this. I will forever be grateful for everything they have done not only for me, but for my family, and my friends that have used them too. Every single person I know that has worked with them has come back glowing!

Oh my goodness -- I am so excited to write this review…read more My History: I participated in approximately 7 wellness reboots (which occur just about every quarter) from Spring 2011 to Spring 2013, and then worked directly with Andrea's colleague, Jackie, for a 6 month "Radiant Health Process," or put simply 6 months of nutrition coaching. The review that follows is specifically about my work with Jackie, but in general I give Andrea and her team a GLOWING 5 stars. They are smart, thorough, well prepared, professional, supportive, and a true pleasure to work with. Re: My 6 month Radiant Health Process: Jackie and I spoke on the phone twice a month, every month, for six consecutive months. The program was clearly spelled out to me before we even spoke on the phone via information sent by email. Jackie was always on time for our calls, always well prepared, and always responded promptly when I contacted her outside of our scheduled times. She was a great leader -- helped me fine tune my larger goals and break them down into smaller, easier to accomplish goals month-to-month, and was sure to note when I had reached them (and to celebrate with me!) She was really great at coming up with solutions to problems I thought were unsolvable (for instance, when I felt like there would be no satisfying replacement for dairy in my life, she had many, many excellent suggestions that I still utilize to this day). She was flexible, caring, and clever. She definitely knows her stuff. Best of all, I could tell Jackie really cared about me and the work I was doing, and was a great support during a time of many changes. I ended my work with Jackie in April of 2014 but have continued to progress on my own, and I'm sure that my solo successes have been a direct result of my work with her. Having the support and accountability that 6 months of coaching gives facilitated the discipline that goes along with taking good care of myself through my diet. At this point I am I'm totally free of coffee (do you hear me? TOTALY FREE and loving it), dairy, most soy, simple carbs, and I make 90% of my meals at home. My sleep is longer and better quality. I have twice as much energy as I used to. I learned how to truly care for myself. It took A LOT of work, and was not always easy. These changes never would have been possible without the work I did with Jackie. If you are really looking to change your life, Jackie is the person to help you make that change. I cannot recommend her highly enough.

I saw Nikki in 2011 and it was life changing. Working with her, I learned I was lactose intolerant…read moreand received a great education on the importance of having a customized nutrition plan to meet my body's specific needs. Nine years later, I reached out again in Feb 2020 to reset after a couple of years of deprioritizing my health. Seeing Nikki again was like riding a bike - she was as warm, understanding, and supportive as ever. She created a very thorough shopping list with a ton of new brands and delicious recipe options that I wouldn't have known otherwise. Nikki made food shopping and cooking FUN because I could feel and taste the difference of what I was putting in my body. And all super easy to find and make!! Fast forward to COVID-19. I was lucky enough to start doing the work a month before the world changed. By then, I was already used to making better food choices for me and having Nikki by my side. While a lot of people were eating through their anxieties, Nikki's support helped me have the semblance of agency by making the most nourishing and simple meals. While I don't weigh myself, I'm definitely thinner and my clothes fit looser. And I feel amazing all around. More than that, Nikki's guidance is holistic. She not only focuses on the food, but also the mental and emotional. Nikki probes deep to help me get in touch with my feelings and then releasing them. She is the real deal and an amazing cheerleader - during the good and the bad! Now getting down to business. Nikki is super responsive (almost at lightning speed) and she's cost conscious. There's a stigma about eating healthy being expensive, but Nikki finds you options and promo codes galore. Seeing her is an investment in your health, and you learn how to maximize it! Call her. Right now. You'll gain a better appreciation for your health and strength, as well as a true friend and champion.

We didn't really connect on an emotional/psychological level and her hyper rational approach didn't always work for me. Having someone to be accountable to is always helpful, but I didn't feel like I was getting much insight beyond what I've read in books or online. What really tripped me up was her cancellation policy. I had to pre-pay for my time with her and when we weren't connecting and I didn't think I had much more to learn from her, I still had to pay for the two months of sessions I no longer wanted to attend. It's her policy and that's fine, it just really didn't work out for me and I would have loved some recourse for the situation I found myself in.

It wasn't until I met Lisa that I really began to understand what was at the core of my struggle. She taught me how to become aware of my behaviors and to recognize where they were stemming from. How to focus on what it was that my body and mind really needed. How to make food meaningful to myself again. She helped me face my triggers, structure my day so I satisfied my body when I needed it, and appreciate my mind and body for what they are. She taught me that food cannot make me happy. I'm the only one who can make myself happy. We have just finished working together after a year and a half. She has helped me achieve my weight loss goal, which I had thought was impossible, and maintain the weight. She has provided me with all of the tools necessary to progress with my weight loss journey and continue to build a positive relationship with food. Thank you Lisa from the bottom of my heart.

I've been doing Shamanic Energy Healing sessions with Arriale and this has been a new experience…read morefor me. I come from a very results-driven background--fitness, strength training, and nutrition--so I've always focused almost entirely on the physical side of health. The spiritual side is something I'm newer to, and I'm realizing it's probably been the missing piece of my puzzle. Arriale has been incredibly supportive, consistent and very intuitive throughout the process. She takes the time to listen, and you can tell she genuinely cares about her clients. The results aren't always immediate or obvious especially for a results driven Type A, but I have noticed increased awareness, mental clarity, and a better understanding of certain patterns that may have been impacting my overall well-being for decades. I also appreciate that we're tracking biomarkers and connecting this work back to real health outcomes, which gives it more substance and satisfies my goal seeking persona. This isn't a quick fix--it's a different layer of the process. And for me, it's been a reminder that health isn't just physical.
